Yes I think there should be limitations, but I don't see anything exploitable about one galaxy, instanced, with the squad leader having the ability to control what type of spawn and how many of that AI are spawned. Also it would be like colo, where no spare parts drop and you don't lose durability from dying. It's a great way to perfect setups, possibly test out new tactics in killing certain AI.

Please, biggee, enlighten us why you feel concerned. Adding that there should be limitations as to how much, how fast , and what type of AI you can spawn depending in your level. - Paxx

Like goett stated before, the entire galaxy would be static, you wouldn't get exp, drops, credits, or even mission kills. Possibly there could be some implemented prizes for squads that fulfill certain goals, but nothing about this galaxy would be exploitable. And I highly doubt it would be that hard to code. The content devs are good at what they do, else they wouldn't be doing it! - Paxx

If you want to test your skills, go do something that you find difficult. If you want to "test out new tactics", why not go kill those AI? If it's not hard to code, how would you code it? You have to account for any kind of exploitable feature considering it's a very serious thing to be able to spawn AI and be able to potentially gain anything of value from it. It's 1 more step towards laziness; you basically don't even need to play the game with any kind of risk, just go sit in your instanced galaxy spawning AI while you stroke your e-peen. If you have any further justifications, do feel free to bring them up.

Alright I guess when you look at it that way I would have to agree with you, but I'm not looking for a galaxy where you can spawn a 1000 zebus and watch them blow up. My meaning was more on the basis of having fun, using strategy to take on 2 random bosses, and see how you would do. Star Sonata is a game is it not?

Not worth the amount of time to implement with no real benefits, in addition to possible exploitation.
